Saves observed data to a target location if given.
save_input(data, target_folder)
Arguments
data: A <data.frame> of disease reports (confirm) by date (date). confirm must be numeric and date must be in date format. Optionally this can also have a logical accumulate column which indicates whether data should be added to the next data point. This is useful when modelling e.g. weekly incidence data. See also the fill_missing() function which helps add the accumulate column with the desired properties when dealing with non-daily data. If any accumulation is done this happens after truncation as specified by the truncation argument.
target_folder: Character string specifying where to save results (will create if not present).
